Since long past interactions were experienced between Spain and Italy in many fields, including the technology of machines and mechanisms. This paper outlines a historical survey on exchanges by indicating to significant achievements in theory and practice of machines and mechanisms within activities also in transferring solutions, experiences, and knowledge not only within academic frames. The paper discusses up the specific interactions in modern times with the aim to present those past interactions as backgrounds and motivations for today collaboration and future joint actions.
